From 26 March to 31 March 2023 the DPG Spring Meeting of the Condensed Matter Section (SKM) will take place on the campus of the Technical University Dresden. The conference is organised by the following divisions and working groups: Condensed Matter Section (SKM) Biological Physics Chemical and Polymer Physics Thin [...]
The American Physical Society's March Meeting brings together scientists and students from around the world to connect and collaborate across academia, industry, and major labs. Students, early-career physicists, and experienced professionals will benefit from the networking and learning at March Meeting. The March Meeting 2023 Experience Whether you join in-person [...]
This fifth edition of the EMFL Days was organized in Kerkrade from September 19-21. About 120 EMFL staff members gathered right on the Dutch-German border, benefiting from Rolduc Abbey‘s sublime ambience and a serene autumnal atmosphere. The aim of the meeting was to continue to learn more about each other’s [...]
Tino Gottschall, HLD Dresden. We are witnessing a great transition towards a society powered by renewable energies to meet the ever-stringent climate target. Hydrogen, as an energy carrier, will play a key role in building a climate-neutral society. Although liquid hydrogen is essential for hydrogen storage and transportation, liquefying hydrogen [...]
Alessandro Surrente, Wroclaw University of Science and Technology, Paulina Plochocka, Wroclaw University of Science and Technology and LNCMI Toulouse. The synthesis of colloidal nanocrystals with near-unity photoluminescence (PL) quantum yields has vastly extended the potential of metal-halide perovskites for solid-state lighting and display applications. It is possible to template the [...]
Elena Blundo, Antonio Polimeni, Sapienza University of Rome, Adam Babiński, University of Warsaw, and Peter Christianen, HFML Nijmegen Strain plays an important role in two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors. Thanks to their all-surface nature, these 2D materials feature an extraordinary capability to bear mechanical deformations without fracturing. This resilience to stress reveals [...]
J. Chang, Zürich University, M. Ichioka, Okayama University, D. Campbell, D. Le Boeuf, LNCMI Grenoble. In the physics of correlated electron systems, van Hove singularities play a key role. These are points in the band structure where the density of states is singular. When the Fermi level is tuned towards [...]

I started my career at the University of Stuttgart, where I studied high-temperature superconductors during my PhD. Then, I joined two consecutive European research [...]
Neutron diffraction in pulsed field using the CEA-CRG spectrometer IN22 at the Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL), Grenoble. In recent years, the use of high magnetic fields in conjunction with beamlines has become increasingly important. For that, a mobile pulsed-field installation, developed at LNCMI Toulouse, is available to users at the ILL [...]
After two years of rather impersonal prize ceremonies the EMFL Board of Directors was happy to hand over the EMFL prize 2022 in person to Dr. Mateusz Dyksik, who currently holds an assistant professor position at the Wrocław University of Science and Technology in Poland. The prize ceremony took place [...]
